Morphological and Anatomical Adaptations to Dry, Shady Environments in Adiantum Reniforme Var
Morphological and anatomical adaptations to dry, shady environments in Adiantum reniforme var. sinense (Pteridaceae) Di Wu1, Linbao Li1, Xiaobo Ma1, Guiyun Huang1 and Chaodong Yang2 1 Rare Plants Research Institute of Yangtze River, Three Gorges Corporation, Yichang, China 2 Engineering Research Center of Ecology and Agriculture Use of Wetland, Ministry of Education, Yangtze University, Jingzhou, China ABSTRACT The natural distribution of the rare perennial fern Adiantum reniforme var. sinense (Pteridaceae), which is endemic to shady cliff environments, is limited to small areas of Wanzhou County, Chongqing, China. In this study, we used brightfield and epifluorescence microscopy to investigate the anatomical structures and histochemical features that may allow this species to thrive in shady, dry cliff environments. The A. reniforme var. sinense sporophyte had a primary structure and a dictyostele. The plants of this species had an endodermis, sclerenchyma layers and hypodermal sterome, reflecting an adaption to dry cliff environments. Blades had a thin cuticle and isolateral mesophyll, suggesting a tolerance of shady environments. These characteristics are similar to many sciophyte ferns such as Lygodium japonicum and Pteris multifida. Thus, the morphological and anatomical characteristics of A. reniforme var. sinense identified in this study are consistent with adaptations to shady, dry cliff environments.

THE JOURNAL OF TROPICAL LIFE SCIENCE OPEN ACCESS Freely available online VOL. 5, NO. 2, pp. 98-104, May, 2015 Gametophyte Morphology and Development of Six Species of Pteris (Pteridaceae) from Java Island Indonesia Dwi Sunarti Puspitasari1, Tatik Chikmawati2*, Titien Ngatinem Praptosuwiryo3 1Plant Biology Graduate Program, Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Bogor Agricultural University, Darmaga Campus, Bogor, Indonesia 2Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences Bogor Agricultural University, Darmaga Campus, Bogor, Indonesia 3Center for Plant Conservation- Bogor Botanical Gardens, Indonesian Institute of Sciences, Bogor, West Java, Indonesia ABSTRACT The morphology of sporophyte, the type of reproduction, and cytology of Pteris had been reported, while the gametophyte morphology of Pteris in Java island has not been studied yet. The objective of this study was to describe the gametophyte morphology and development of P. biaurita, P. ensiformis, P. exelsa, P. longipinnula, P. tripartita, and P. vittata in Java island. Spores were obtained from fertile leaves of Pteris plants originated from several locations in Java island. The number of spores per sporangium was counted from fresh fertile leaves with mature sporangia. As much as 0.002 g spores was sown in a transparent box with sterile medium contain of ver- miculite, sphagnum moss, and perlite with ratio 2:2:1. The gametophyte development of each species was observed under a microscope every 7 days. The spores of P. ensiformis were germinated faster, ten days after sowing, while the spores of P. longipinnula were germinated slower, 18 days after sowing. The pattern of spore germination is Vittaria-type.

The Island Rule and Its Application to Multiple Plant Traits
The island rule and its application to multiple plant traits Annemieke Lona Hedi Hendriks A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Ecology and Biodiversity Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand 2019 ii “The larger the island of knowledge, the longer the shoreline of wonder” Ralph W. Sockman. iii iv General Abstract Aim The Island Rule refers to a continuum of body size changes where large mainland species evolve to become smaller and small species evolve to become larger on islands. Previous work focuses almost solely on animals, with virtually no previous tests of its predictions on plants. I tested for (1) reduced floral size diversity on islands, a logical corollary of the island rule and (2) evidence of the Island Rule in plant stature, leaf size and petiole length. Location Small islands surrounding New Zealand; Antipodes, Auckland, Bounty, Campbell, Chatham, Kermadec, Lord Howe, Macquarie, Norfolk, Snares, Stewart and the Three Kings. Methods I compared the morphology of 65 island endemics and their closest ‘mainland’ relative. Species pairs were identified. Differences between archipelagos located at various latitudes were also assessed. Results Floral sizes were reduced on islands relative to the ‘mainland’, consistent with predictions of the Island Rule. Plant stature, leaf size and petiole length conformed to the Island Rule, with smaller plants increasing in size, and larger plants decreasing in size. Main conclusions Results indicate that the conceptual umbrella of the Island Rule can be expanded to plants, accelerating understanding of how plant traits evolve on isolated islands.

A Taxonomic Account of Pteridophytic Flora of Adampur Forest, Moulvibazar District, Bangladesh
Dhaka Univ. J. Biol. Sci. 27(1): 101-111, 2018 (January) A TAXONOMIC ACCOUNT OF PTERIDOPHYTIC FLORA OF ADAMPUR FOREST, MOULVIBAZAR DISTRICT, BANGLADESH NADRA TABASSUM* Department of Botany, University of Dhaka, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh Key words: Taxonomic account, Pteridophytic flora, Adampur forest, Bangladesh Abstract A total of 17 pteridophyte species belonging to 11 genera and 9 families have been identified from Adampur forest of Moulvibazar district in Bangladesh are dealt with. Updated nomenclature with important synonyms, family name, English name, local name, citation of the specimen examined and a crisp description has been furnished under each species. Photographs of the species have been provided for easy identification. The voucher specimens have been deposited in the Dhaka University Salar Khan Herbarium, Department of Botany, University of Dhaka. Introduction Pteridophytes are widely distributed throughout the world. They show luxuriant growth from sea level to the highest mountains in moist and shady tropical and temperate forests(1). From the evolutionary point of view, pteridophytes are quite important for their evolutionary trend of vascular system and portraying the succession of seed habitat in the plants. Besides, they established a link between the lower group of plant and advanced seed bearing plants and consequently pteridophytes have been placed between the bryophytes and higher vascular plants. Despite being the ancient plants their vegetation is under threat in dominance of seed bearing plants(2). Some species are very beneficial to humans and many species attracts plant lovers for their graceful, fascinating and beautiful foliage (3). Although pteridophytes including ferns have been neglected due to its less economic importance but since ancient time ferns are of human interest for medical value as well.

Phytoremediation and phytostabilization are two techniques for treating arsenic (As) contaminated soil. Several ornamental plant species, Iris (Iris savannarum), switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), Tithonia rotundiflora, Coreopsis lanceolata, sunflower (Helianthus annuus), and marigold (Tagetes erecta), were evaluated for their potential use as accumulator plants. Based on dry weight, tithonia and coreopsis were most sensitive to As. Tithonia had an 85% reduction in dry weight at 0.75 mg As L-1 and coreopsis a 65% reduction at 2.25 mg As L-1 solution concentration. Iris dry weight increased with increasing solution concentrations but As did not accumulate in tissue.

Central Coast Group PO Box 1604, Gosford NSW 2250 Austplants.Com.Au/Central-Coast
Central Coast Group PO Box 1604, Gosford NSW 2250 austplants.com.au/Central-Coast Ferns for Central Coast Gardens Ferns can add a lush beauty to your garden or home. Dating back to the Carboniferous period, some 350 million years ago, ferns are one of the oldest plant forms. On the Central Coast there are many beautiful ferns indigenous to this area. Why not try some of these ferns: in your garden, indoors, in a hanging basket, in or near a water feature. What is a fern? Ferns belong to a group of non-flowering plants that include algae, mosses and liverworts. From large tree ferns such as Cyathea, to the tiny delicate Maidenhair Fern, Adiantum, ferns have one thing in common. They all produce spores. What growing conditions do ferns like? Most ferns prefer a cool, moist position in light dappled shade, protected from strong winds. Generally ferns like a soil containing plenty of organic matter. Heavy mulching around the root area will keep the roots cool and prevent water loss. A free draining mix should be used for plants grown in pots or baskets. Ferns grown indoors should be kept away from direct sunlight, draughts and heaters. Do ferns have any pests or diseases? Generally ferns are not troubled by many pests or diseases. However, slugs and snails can sometimes be a problem, as can scale, insect pests and mealy bug. If your plants suffer from any of these problems, consult your local nursery, as treatment of these pests is constantly being improved and updated. Where do ferns grow? Ferns can be found growing as: epiphytes sometimes attached to a tree high up in the canopy.

Phytochrome Diversity in Green Plants and the Origin of Canonical Plant Phytochromes
ARTICLE Received 25 Feb 2015 | Accepted 19 Jun 2015 | Published 28 Jul 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms8852 OPEN Phytochrome diversity in green plants and the origin of canonical plant phytochromes Fay-Wei Li1, Michael Melkonian2, Carl J. Rothfels3, Juan Carlos Villarreal4, Dennis W. Stevenson5, Sean W. Graham6, Gane Ka-Shu Wong7,8,9, Kathleen M. Pryer1 & Sarah Mathews10,w Phytochromes are red/far-red photoreceptors that play essential roles in diverse plant morphogenetic and physiological responses to light. Despite their functional signiﬁcance, phytochrome diversity and evolution across photosynthetic eukaryotes remain poorly understood. Using newly available transcriptomic and genomic data we show that canonical plant phytochromes originated in a common ancestor of streptophytes (charophyte algae and land plants). Phytochromes in charophyte algae are structurally diverse, including canonical and non-canonical forms, whereas in land plants, phytochrome structure is highly conserved. Liverworts, hornworts and Selaginella apparently possess a single phytochrome, whereas independent gene duplications occurred within mosses, lycopods, ferns and seed plants, leading to diverse phytochrome families in these clades. Surprisingly, the phytochrome portions of algal and land plant neochromes, a chimera of phytochrome and phototropin, appear to share a common origin. Our results reveal novel phytochrome clades and establish the basis for understanding phytochrome functional evolution in land plants and their algal relatives. 1 Department of Biology, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina 27708, USA. 2 Botany Department, Cologne Biocenter, University of Cologne, 50674 Cologne, Germany. 3 University Herbarium and Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720, USA. 4 Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH3 5LR, UK. 5 New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, New York 10458, USA.

Felix Street, Bldg. 23 Fort Worth, Texas 76115-3404 ABSTRACT The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) administers the National Wetland Plant List (NWPL) for the United States (U.S.) and its territories. Responsibility for the NWPL was transferred to the Corps from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in 2006. From 2006 to 2012 the Corps led an interagency effort to update the list in conjunction with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the FWS, and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), culminating in the publication of the 2012 NWPL. In 2013 and 2014 geographic ranges and nomenclature were updated. This paper presents the fourth update of the list under Corps administration. During the current update, the indicator status of 1689 species was reviewed. A total of 306 ratings of 186 species were changed during the update.

A Review on the Potential Uses of Ferns M
Ethnobotanical Leaflets 12: 281-285. 2008. A Review on the Potential Uses of Ferns M. Mannar Mannan, M. Maridass* and B.Victor Animal Health Research Unit, St. Xavier’s College (Autonomous) Palayamkottai, Tamil Nadu – 627002 *Corresponding Author: Dr. M. Maridass, DST-SERC-Young Scientist Animal Health Research Unit St. Xavier’s College (Autonomous), Palayamkottai, Tamil Nadu – 627002. Email: [email protected] Issued 24 May 2008 Introduction Man has been using plants as a source of food, medicines and many other necessities of life since ancient times. Even to this day the primitive tribal societies that exist depend on the plant life in their surroundings. Though there were investigations of the edible economic values of the higher plants, especially the pteridophytes and angiosperms have been unfortunately ignored. The pteridophytes are used in Homoeopathic, Ayurvedic, Tribal and Unani medicines and provides food, insecticides and ornamentations. Ferns used as food With very few exception ferns have not been widely used as a source of food. The fern stems, rhizomes, leaves, young fronds and shoots and some whole plants are used for food. Tree ferns have often been used as food and starch in Hawaii. Also, ferns are supposed to increase milk production when fed to cows in Sicily. The young fronds and underground stem of the fern Asplenium ensiforme are used for food by hilly tribes. In Malaysia, Blechnum orientalis L., rhizome is eaten and whole plant is used as feed and as poultice in boil. The fronds of Ceratopteris thalictroides are used as a vegetable. The young fronds of Diplazium esculentum are eaten either as salad or as vegetable after cooking.
